Kaiser Health News and ABC obtained compensation details for CEOs at dozens of top nonprofit and government-supported hospital systems. Source documents are available as downloadable .ZIP files by clicking hyperlinks in the “Sources” column in the cart below. Data are from the most recent year available, which is 2012 or 2011 unless otherwise noted.
